**FAMILIAL HEADPHONE WARNINGS**
Oh, if this case wasn't serious enough, now, it's moved from "business" to "personal," with the con involving someone from Makoto's past that he has NO interest in seeing but has MAJOR ties to the players in this con!
Laurent brought Makoto to this case for a reason, but WHY? And will Makoto start to lose himself and follow down his father's path as he gets deeper into it? I was FLOORED by this episode and I am going to hav...

**GOAT-WORTHY HEADPHONE WARNING**
This game of Kaijo vs. Seiren was a LOT more intense than I originally thought it was going to be, and a LOT longer! But hey, Kise DESERVES it, y'all!
I love our blonde model, how far he's come, and the love he has for his team! But this episode set is full of surprises and it looks like we're having a much-needed flashback before the final game of the season?! Oh yeah, I'm HYPED!

**RESOUNDING HEADPHONE WARNINGS**
This series has been absolutely amazing! I have loved the details and emotion and character development this season expanded upon from season one -- and I don't want the Tsurune journey to end!

Oh y'all, this episode picks right up from the last and Arnheid finds herself out of the frying pan and into the LITERAL fire with Gardar being held captive by Snake and his men...and the events surrounding this estranged couple have led to Snake being pushed to the EDGE!
Meanwhile, Thorfinn and Einar are having an existential, ideological discussion of how to solve the cycle of violence they've grown up with and I have a feeling that c...

* Episodes 25 and Episode 25.5
PATTERN B:
* Episodes 13-16

* Episodes 20-22
* Episodes 23, 24, 25, and 25.5
Please vote below which you think would work better! PLEASE no Spoilers! :3

**Imprisoned Headphone Warnings**
Man, this is part 1 of "This is Why We Can't Have Nice Things" - The Episode - for this season. Arnheid's VA delivers a POWERFUL performance as a woman that has lost everything and still strives to find some semblance of peace and "normalcy" against the odds stacked for her. Meanwhile, Gardar is a (understandable) threat, Snake is having to make hard choices, and Einar and Thorfinn are caught in the middle of it!
I say "part 1" becau...

OH WOW, y'all -- this volume was "Callback Central" with the climax and aftermath of the Trost Battle. But what made it even more of a reaction was how the manga re-organized information from the anime (or rather vice versa)!

So far, our cases in this show have had a fun, fluffy "lining" around them that have lent to a more light-hearted vibe, but with THIS case, we're already setting up how serious and sobering this situation is that Makoto has become a part of and I'm not sure I like where Makoto's character is headed through it. It's definitely hitting "close to home" with the subject matter of trafficking and Makoto's desire to save people is going to make this con a lot more...

Oh, KyoAni, you have given us a BEAUTIFUL season of Tsurune, but THIS episode was such a **chef's kiss** in terms of animation, emotional builds to the climax of the competition, and little character payoffs that the season has built up for us. And yet STILL, there are questions, unresolved plot points, and PLENTY of room for even MORE development and answers in the last episode.
